Video Analytics Company
TYSONS, Va.--Alarm.com (Nasdaq:
ALRM), the leading platform for the intelligently connected property, today
announced the acquisition of substantially all assets of Vintra, a software
provider of award-winning AI-powered video analytics for the enterprise
commercial market. Integrating Vintra's software capabilities and its
experienced science and engineering teams will expand Alarm.com's deep learning
program and accelerate deployment of advanced video analytics solutions for the
Alarm.com and OpenEye
platforms.
Launched in 2016, Vintra's cloud platform transforms data from any video
management system into actionable and trusted intelligence that can improve how
organizations monitor and search for critical security events. Vintra's AI
models can track a range of objects and events, including a specific person, two
or four-wheeled vehicles, bags, or a person-down situation. Its
re-identification algorithm can track a person of interest across hundreds of
cameras in real-time and can search large amounts of video recordings to find
video clips of the person of interest within minutes.
"The Vintra team adds to Alarm.com's science and engineering expertise in the
field of AI and machine learning, and we're excited to welcome them on board,"
said Jeff Bedell, Alarm.com's President of Ventures Business and Corporate
Strategy. "The acquisition expands the specialization of Alarm.com's AI team and
will extend our leadership in this important domain. Our goal is to deploy
market-defining video analytics solutions, scale them across the Alarm.com and
OpenEye platforms, and open new areas of growth for our service provider and
integrator partners."

software engineers, and technical services teams as part of the acquisition.
